    Meyers did well enough to give Kanter rest he needed. Meyers gave a different look and did make Jokic work.
    Funny thing was Aminu Harkless and Seth had better luck with quickness against him.

    Perhaps. Or Collins.

    I also wouldn’t be opposed to going smaller at times and conceding Jokic getting his if it means he isn’t kicking out to guys for 3s

    Kanter played most of his minutes with all or at least some of CJ, Aminu, and Harkless on the court who were all brutally bad tonight.

    What does that mean? It means you're blaming the wrong person.

    what are you talking about? I was responding to a post that said he had 8 points

    "Evan Turner 8 points 4 assists 0 turnovers in 10 minutes. A +4."

    "ET scored as many points tonight as I did"

    context

    Without our Bosnian anchor Den will tough. Leonard looked solid enough defensely on Joker, but man he's deer in headlights on offense too often. Way to much hesitation from the role players tonight, overall lack of ball movement from everyone.

    Nobody thinks he actually sucls, its venting. He misses 2 FTs, he sucks. He makes 2 straight threes, hes awesome. So.e people just let their emotions hangout on the forum in game threads and people should be able to realize who they are and what theyre really about (do they say "Curry sucks" all the time or is it just said out of frustration?).

    Classic case of false equivalency.

    Another problem is their Beasley’s are much better than our equivalent of bench player

    Their just too deep. Credit to their GM seems like he hits on all his picks

    Haha u sound like Joe Pesci from Goodfellas lol

    I just meant his skill set is special. A big man like that who can hit the 3, pass like sabas, take it up court, rebound, all that is special..
